RESEARCH
Research inspired by autistic individuals is essential, adhering to the principle of "Nothing about us without us." Susan Golubock, a retired occupational therapist who is also autistic, spearheaded the investigation into the Neuro-Strengths-Based Support for Autism framework.
NEURO STRENGTHS BASED SUPPORT FOR AUTISM (NSBSA)
A deeper understanding of the neurological differences in autism can lead to more effective coordination among various behavioral, developmental, educational, therapeutic, medical, and family-based approaches. Neuro-Strength-Based Support for Autism (NSBSA) seeks to translate neuroscience research into accessible terms for autistic individuals and their support networks.
​
Rather than introducing a new intervention, NSBSA serves as a unifying framework for understanding autism, offering a cohesive tool for therapists, educators, clinicians, and parents to enhance the functional abilities and personal goals of autistic individuals. Developed by an autistic occupational therapist drawing on both professional and lived experience, this framework aims to foster a more integrated approach to support.
